There is NO FUCKING EXCUSE for this to be happening.
I had a baby die in my arms of pertussis some fifty years ago. It was a HORRIBLE death. But my fellow nurses said to me, "It's almost stamped out now, they're all getting the shots, we won't be seeing this again."
HOW THE FUCK ARE WE HERE. 😡

A third infant has died in Kentucky, KYDPH adds:
“These are Kentucky’s first pertussis deaths since 2018. None of the infants nor their mothers received the recommended pertussis vaccinations during pregnancy or early infancy.”

Nah. Transphobia is a hard line. The base hates transphobia, and if you want an example of an actual elite obsession that's broadly unpopular with regular schmucks, anti-trans bullshit is it.
Pete Buttigieg would be a good DNC spokesperson.
He would do a GREAT job of going around the country, being on TV all the time, and putting out Dem messaging on EVERY issue.
He would be an excellent counter-Leavitt. And we NEED one. He should be holding regular press conferences and putting

Now there’s a winning message.

This is, quite literally, the concluding chapter from years of vice signaling as politics. There is no better evidence for how putting Trump, a charlatan and moral void, at the center of our politics for a decade has resulted in the literal rotting of the soul and character this nation.

So, just keeping score here, all the slapdicks running around with guns in the woods to "fight off the faceless stormtroopers" actually love the faceless stormtroopers, and all the "fight the elite pedophile conspiracy" kooks actually voted enthusiastically for the elite pedophile conspiracy.
